Pussy Tales

See this? This is Tessa. She may look like a cat to the average human being, but she believes she is a queen and deserves nothing but the best life has to offer. Tessa is quite the verbal cat as well - howling when someone is behind a closed door, or when they have the audacity to walk by her without scratching her belly. Tessa was adopted from a "no kill" shelter about 2 years ago. I think she may have forgotten her humble beginnings.

As many of you know, we are headed to San Antonio, Texas on Sunday. We will be returning the following Saturday (6 night trip). I was
fine with leaving Tessa here at the house with a self feeder and waterer. But noooo! Not the queen! You see, not only does Tessa know she's the queen, husband believes she is the top pussy in the house. We can't possibly leave Tessa alone for 6 nights. Tessa needs a vacation. What? A vacation?? I would be crushed if anything happened to Tessa, but she is a cat for goodness sakes!

Welcome to Kountry Kennels Pet Resort & Spa. A state-of-the art, HEPA filtered, octagon cat room which has been built with love and the most advanced technology in cat boarding. Yeah - I lost that argument.



But wait! We can have Tessa boarded there in what they call the Cat Apartments; 2- ½’ length, width and height, bedding provided, catnip toy treats, separate/private area for litter, $12.00/night. Perfect!

Not when you can have the Cat Condo; 7’ tall by 2½’ wide & long, multi-levels, view of 650 gallon fish tank, view of play area, cushy bedding provided, catnip toy treats, separate/private area for litter, $20.00/night. OK, I can live with that, but I think it's a bit steep for a cat.

Ha! What was I thinking?? Yes, there is a Cat Hi-Rise; 7' in
height by 6’ in width by 3’ in length, multi-levels, view of 650 gallon fish tank, view of play area, cushy bedding provided, catnip toy treats, separate/private area for litter, bird watching from private window all for the bargain price of $30.00/night. You can't be serious? You are?!

Not only that, but husband has decided that Tessa should have a Kitty Kocktail each night before bed. For just $2.00 a pop, she'll be served a generous scoop of tuna, sprinkled with flavorful pounce treats. Trust me, that's more than I will be getting the entire trip!


Thank goodness we don't have a dog or we'd have been out $60.00/night for the NASCAR Suite ... and no ... I'm not kidding!
